[webkit-dev] Downtime for Bugzilla upgrade on Thursday, October 16 from 8-10 AM PDT

[David Kilzer]

Two commit queue issues:

1. Patches are landing, but bugs aren't being closed.  Looks like webkit-patch is failing because a textarea is disabled by default.

2. Some commit queue patches fail to apply because 'OOPS!' is not being removed from ChangeLog entries.

Investigating.
